Anlass waren meine jüngsten Vorträge auf der FOSS Backstage und der FOSDEM, in denen ich über die Herausforderungen und Chancen von Software-Lieferketten bei der DB gesprochen habe. ## [Getting Real with the Supply Chain: From SBOM Data to Action](https://mehl.mx/blog/2026/getting-real-with-the-supply-chain-from-sbom-data-to-action/) _2026-03-17 · Max Mehl (Updates and thoughts)_ At DB, we handle 100,000+ SBOMs per day. For our small, virtual Open Source Program Office (OSPO), the challenge is not to get lost in the data, but to cut through the jungle and identify real risks. Together with my OSPO colleague Cornelius Schumacher, I presented this challenge at the FOSS Backstage conference in Berlin. We explained how we gather data, generate insights, and take action. ## [Earn crypto from idle GPUs (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/MjImyeEpksAd) _2026-03-16 · **Sponsored**_ Run one CLI command, connect your GPU, and start receiving crypto payouts. ## [Deutsche Bahn's Approach to Large-Scale SBOM Collection and Use](https://mehl.mx/blog/2026/deutsche-bahns-approach-to-large-scale-sbom-collection-and-use/) _2026-02-01 · Max Mehl (Updates and thoughts)_ At FOSDEM 2026, I presented Deutsche Bahn’s journey from operational need to concrete implementation of large-scale SBOM collection and use. The scale is staggering: approximately 500,000 SBOMs across our software supply chain expected, covering 7,000+ IT applications, 100,000+ Open Source components, and diverse sourcing streams from software we build ourselves to what we buy and operate.… ## [Software Supply Chain Strategy at Deutsche Bahn](https://mehl.mx/blog/2026/software-supply-chain-strategy-at-deutsche-bahn/) _2026-01-31 · Max Mehl (Updates and thoughts)_ At FOSDEM 2026, I presented Deutsche Bahn’s software supply chain strategy in the context of the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), but made clear from the start that CRA was the context, not the trigger. We didn’t adopt SBOMs because of regulation – regulation validated the direction we were already taking based on operational needs. The presentation positioned our work at the… ## [OSPOs as Sovereignty Engines](https://mehl.mx/blog/2026/ospos-as-sovereignty-engines/) _2026-01-30 · Max Mehl (Updates and thoughts)_ At the EU Open Source Policy Summit 2026, I participated in a panel discussion on how Open Source Programme Offices (OSPOs) can serve as engines of digital sovereignty for large organizations. Alongside experts from the European Commission, RTE, IKEA Group, and Research Institutes of Sweden, we explored how OSPOs can build institutional capability for open collaboration and governance, and how EU… ## [The final chapter of the EU Radio Equipment Directive](https://mehl.mx/blog/2026/the-final-chapter-of-the-eu-radio-equipment-directive/) _2026-01-29 · Max Mehl (Updates and thoughts)_ In the 45th episode of the FSFE Software Freedom Podcast, I joined Alexander Sander and Bonnie Mehring to discuss what is hopefully the final chapter of the EU Radio Equipment Directive (RED). This was a fitting conversation on the way to FOSDEM 2026, reflecting on nearly a decade of work to protect Free Software on radio devices. The discussion traced the complete arc of this campaign, from my… ## [OpenRail Day 2025 Moderation](https://mehl.mx/blog/2025/openrail-day-2025-moderation/) _2025-12-17 · Max Mehl (Updates and thoughts)_ I had the pleasure to moderate the OpenRail Day 2025 in Paris, organised by the OpenRail Association to share knowledge and experiences about Open Source software in the railway industry. This event brought together railway operators, digital experts, and Open Source communities from across Europe for a day dedicated to showcasing concrete Open Source projects already at work in the railway… ## [The Burden of Knowledge: Dealing With Open Source Risks](https://mehl.mx/blog/2025/the-burden-of-knowledge-dealing-with-open-source-risks/) _2025-03-10 · Max Mehl (Updates and thoughts)_ At FOSS Backstage 2025 in Berlin, I explored a critical challenge facing OSPOs and development teams: as we increase analysis of our software supply chains, tools and scorecards reveal potential risks in Open Source projects like low maintenance, lack of community, or poor security practices. But this data alone doesn’t help if it merely points out potential problems without offering… ## [The burden of knowledge: dealing with open-source risks (LWN.net)](https://mehl.mx/blog/2025/the-burden-of-knowledge-dealing-with-open-source-risks-lwn.net/) _2025-03-10 · Max Mehl (Updates and thoughts)_ My talk at FOSS Backstage (see earlier update) was covered by LWN.net, in an article by Joe Brockmeier. It’s an extensive summary of the talk, so if the video recording isn’t your thing, you can read the article instead. ## [INWX DNS Recordmaster - Manage your DNS nameserver records via files in Git](https://mehl.mx/blog/2024/inwx-dns-recordmaster-manage-your-dns-nameserver-records-via-files-in-git/) _2024-11-07 · Max Mehl (Updates and thoughts)_ I own and manage 30+ domains at INWX , a large and professional domain registrar. Although INWX has a somewhat decent web interface, it became a burden for me to keep an overview of each domain’s sometimes dozens of records. Especially when e.g. changing an IP address for more than one domain, it caused multiple error-prone clicks and copy/pastes that couldn’t be reverted in the worst… ## [Why DB Systel relies on Open Source for strategic collaboration](https://mehl.mx/blog/2024/why-db-systel-relies-on-open-source-for-strategic-collaboration/) _2024-09-01 · Max Mehl (Updates and thoughts)_ In this article, I explain why DB Systel relies on Open Source for strategic collaboration and how we approach Open Source at Deutsche Bahn. An essential tool for that is the OpenRail Association, a neutral platform for the railway industry to share and collaborate on Open Source software. The article also highlights the importance of community involvement and how DB Systel fosters a culture of…
